»We are very happy that the Crown Princess and her family chose to come to us at the Royal Swedish Opera and draw attention to the cultural sector and our employees. It fits extra well now for our 250th anniversary, which we will celebrate throughout 2023«, says Fredrik Lindgren, CEO of the Royal Swedish Opera.

During their visit, Princess Estelle, Prince Oscar, Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel got to try on some of the costumes created by the Royal Swedish Opera's costume department. The Crown Princess family also got to meet the Royal Swedish Ballet dancers Luiza Lopes and Jonatan Davidsson, who both participate in the ballet Cinderella, that the family got to see performed on the Main Stage.

The Royal Swedish Opera is Sweden's National stage for opera and ballet. The Opera was established by King Gustav III in 1773 and will celebrate its 250th anniversary in 2023.

Världspianisten Roland Pöntinen gästar Kungliga Hovkapellet under ledning av Alan Gilbert för två konserter på Kungliga Operans stora scen den 11 och 15 mars. »Pianokonsert nr 22 är en av Mozarts finaste, men av någon anledning spelas den inte så ofta. Verket är dock en riktig pärla och vid uruppförandet begärde publiken att få höra den vackra andra satsen en gång till«, säger Roland Pöntinen.
